Anyone does dropshipping?

[dillite]

And if you do, how are you finding it? I've read that it can be a good way to get some extra money without needing loads of storage space/ daily post office trips, and can be fairly fool-proof. Is it true?

A lot of buyers complain about it on discussion boards (I know they don't have a right to complain, but they do). I don't know how that ends up impacting FB. I would research that aspect of it, some buyers feel like they've been cheated.

Why would they feel cheated? Personally I would just be happy to get my item, but that's me. I will have a look for some of those boards.

Not my complaint, but the moan I have seen is along lines of "I thought I knew who I was buying from" and also a feeling that if you got it for cheaper they should have got it for cheaper, instead, so they blame drop shipper for their lack of research. They wanted to pay for cheap goods, not pay you to find the goods.

I have seen feedback trashed because stuff has been sent direct from amazon and not from the seller. You are meant to have items in your possession if you sell on ebay anyway.

You would also need to register as a business with eBay and HMRC.

Have never heard of drop shipping so will read with interest, thanks!

Oh and dropshipping is against eBay's T+Cs.
